A Day with Heather. :: Talented Friends & Bristol.

I am so in love with Bristol these days, it's a little out of control, really. Something that makes it such a warm and inviting place for me, is the people that I know that live here or visit often. Two of those people: Heather and Jack. Jack's family have just build a Passive House in thier back yard essentially. It's a stark contrast to the very characterful house that now sits right next to this modern masterpiece. Heather is an artist who has a lot of skills including woodwork, and she helped add some beautiful touches to thier new house. Heather is building a website and needed some photos so of course I said I'd help out. It was mostly just a good excuse to hang out and eat hummous and catch up. We picked a beautiful sunny day and here are some of my favourite photos from the afternnon...It's so magical to get a peek into someone else's home adventure. I'm feeling very unprepared to take photos of my own house and we've only been here for 4.5 months! ;] Oh well, I know it's a slow process, and of course if you're going to have your house photographed, you're going to have to do some 'dressing'. :]

P.s. It feels really good to be blogging again. I have a confession to make: I've haven't been using my SLR as much as I used to. I haven't even been carrying it around with me most days! I am, however, using my phone to take snaps a lot... which is kind of where most people are going now, but I gotta admit it was NICE to shoot on a 'real' camera and sit and edit these. It made me miss taking everyday photos this way.
